@Popehat Riddle me this: Let's say the unlikely occurs and Fani Willis is impeached at any time before the trial's conclusion. What happens then?

@jpwkeeper @Popehat Simple: her replacement takes over the case. Indictments are done by grand juries, not prosecutors, and the case is between the defendants and The People, not just whoever happens to have the D.A. job at the moment.

@grumpybozo @Popehat Who decides to her replacement is in Georgia? And if that replacement is a loyalist, could they not just drop all charges?
